Buzz was after Gus last night. So transparent. These merkins don’t like each other and Buzz went after his adversary.
Talking about Gus, I watched the Ch9 stream of the Tigers match. LOL at Gus who after the Reg 50m try chirped that he “knew” that he would become the best prop inthe game this year.
The same merkin who shopped Reg.
Besides their dislike of each other, I believe his strong objection to Gould's NRL appointment has also got a lot to do with Gould also being a media man and therefore will have the scoop on every major and not so major story coming out of the NRL from now on.
In other words, Gould could feasibly report on anything that he feels the need to, being privy to info that outsiders don't have the same access to. Or what is more likely on a more regular basis he could pass on information(scoops) to colleagues at either CH9 or SMH and stick it right up Buzz's scoop ability arse.
Also it could allow Gould and or the NRL the ability to control the narrative somewhat, which click bail bottom feeders like Buzz would absolutely abhor to the core of their pathetic being. I say this could be an issue of course on certain topics, but overall in my view it is about time the NRL has someone of influence in the media in its corner to propagate positive outcomes and stories for the NRL.
Rothfield prides himself(wrongly I believe) to being the number one snoop scooper in sports media. This he probably feels is going to adversely affect that perception. Tough tities I say and suck it up you hoax.
I though love this appointment and if Gould is used right could be a God send to the Development pathways of our game. Especially in the development of our playmakers. Gould has always said that each NRL team should have 2 to 3 if not more NRL capable and ready halves coming through in their squads, like the NFL sort of. If he can achieve that over the next 10 years or so, he will have increased the NRL's quality 100 fold in my opinion.
The quality of the playmakers at present has never been so ordinary since the 70's at least. At least 8 or 9 teams have reserve grade stranded playmakers and is the PRIMARY cause of the chasm split between the 6 or 7 good teams versus the rest now that the games is free flowing again and can't be disguised by the wrestle. It needs to be fixed or the game will decline big time in its overall appeal at every level. The play makers make the product what it is. All the other players no matter how good feed off that.
Period!!!
